Chapter 165: An Unexpected Direction of Development
If you want to make a greenhouse, it is not difficult to make a greenhouse at the level of alchemy in another world, but the problem is that there needs to be something to replace plastic film, which was originally pinned on Nanali, but soon, he realized that he had made a mistake.
"Trolls of the Deep......... Dragon Wing ......... Underground Mother Spider ........."
Looking at the list in front of him, Fang Zheng was speechless.
"Miss Nanali, I remember that my request was very clear, what we needed was a transparent film that could be used to keep warm and moisturize, and to keep out the cold and warm......... What are you......... Are you planning to make any artifacts? β
Even Fang Zheng knew that most of the creatures on this list were legendary creatures, not to mention whether they could get them, and even if they did......... What's the use of this?
"But, but, according to you, sir, I think these are the best!"
"But that's not enough!"
Fang Zheng reluctantly put down the list in his hand, stretched out his hand, and gestured at the brown-haired girl in front of him.
"Let's take dragon wings as an example, even if we succeed in slaying dragons, how much area can a dragon wing cover when converted into a film? What's more, we're not going to do it all at once! It's a long-term business! We may have to sell a few thousand or more in the future, and by then, where are we going to find another dragon? Not to mention the price, the price of these things......... I don't say how much time and money it takes to slay a dragon, even if you get it back, the dragon skin can't be made casually! β
Fang Zheng originally thought that the reason why the girl in front of him had not seen an improvement in business was bad luck, but after he actually started working, he found that Nanali and her mother had a problem at all, no matter what the invention was, they immediately thought of the best materials, and then didn't pay attention to other issues at all......... But the problem is that those precious materials can't be mass-produced at all!
Besides, I'm just building a greenhouse, so how does your list make me feel like you're going to colonize Mars?
"I'm sorry ........."
Hearing Fang Zheng's reply, Nanali finally understood where her problem was, and immediately took back the list in frustration. And Fang Zheng also sighed, and then looked at the little angel beside him.
"Nimfu, do you have any good advice?"
"So how about this? Master? β
Nimfu, who was consulting the Encyclopedia of Magic, blinked when she heard Fangzheng's inquiry, and then flipped through the book in her hand. Looking at the information above, Fang Zheng and Nanali were stunned.
ββ¦β¦β¦ Slime? β
"Is this low-level monster really useful?"
Nanali's first instinct was to be suspicious, because slimes are too low-level, almost the lowest link in the entire Overworld food chain, most of them live in the dark places and caves of the forest, these slimes themselves are not strong, the threat is also very limited, plus they are not useful, even the mercenaries are not interested in hunting them.
But for Founder, this problem is not a problem.
"It feeds on moss and decay, and its skin is soft and elastic......... It is difficult to damage it with a normal blade......... Only live in places with dense vegetation........."
Looking at the introduction of slimes in the encyclopedia dictionary, Fang Zheng thought for a while.
"Anyway, let's go check it out."
It's easy to find slimes, in fact, they can be seen in the caves around the town, there are a lot of them, but they are not very dangerous, they are not very aggressive, and they move slowly, so ordinary villagers will not go to them for trouble. Therefore, it didn't take much effort, Fang Zheng and the others found the "legendary" slime.
"That's it."
Looking at the slime in front of him, Fang Zheng frowned slightly. The slimes in the Overworld are very different from the cute little monsters in the game that Fang Zheng remembers. They look more like a wriggling puddle of mud, and these slimes eat everything, but they are slow, and it is obviously unrealistic to want to hunt animals and humans. Therefore, most of the slimes devoured some plants and rotting corpses, plus it was not an animal and had no fur, so it was covered with a layer of mud all over its body, and it looked even worse.
However, this does not mean that slimes are as harmless as the White Rabbits, as these slimes release a venom when attacked to paralyze their opponent's nerves, paralyzing them, and then slowly swallowing them into their bodies to digest them. The process is somewhat similar to that of a python or spider, except that the slime's venom itself is not very toxic, and at most it is only effective against rabbits and the like.
Of course, this is not a problem for Fang Zheng, in fact, even the little angel with weak combat power can easily deal with it, and only an alchemist like Nanali who has no power to restrain the chicken can do it.
"Whoa!"
Fang Zheng waved his hand, and soon a water balloon appeared out of thin air, and then smashed on the slime's body, washing away all the mud on its body. After washing away the mud covering the slimes' bodies, Fang Zheng finally saw their bodies clearlyβββ the appearance of these slimes looked a bit like translucent jellyfish, but without tentacles, they looked like a wriggling water balloon.
Slimes don't have organs like eyes, and the encyclopedic dictionary doesn't say how the creature perceives its surroundings. But Fang Zheng didn't care, he went up and stabbed the slime's body with a sword, and then saw the slime's originally swollen body tremble suddenly, and then immediately paralyzed.
The life core of slimes is a small ball in their body, and if they stab that thing, the slime will be killed with a single blow.
"Nimfu, come and see what these things are for."
"Yes, master."
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Nimfu also crouched down and stretched out her hand to put it on the slime's corpse, and then, the little guy's eyes began to glow brightly.
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦ Scanning the surface of the organism......... Analyze the kernel ......... Reparse ........."
After a few moments, Nimfu blinked, stood up and looked at Fang Zheng again, smiling happily.
"Master, it's done!"
"Looks like it's going to turn out well?"
Looking at the elated appearance of the little angel, Fang Zheng also raised his eyebrows. Nimfu was still very respectful in front of herself, and the things that were given to her on weekdays, if the little angel were not nine out of ten, would never be so obvious.
"Yes."
Sure enough, hearing Fangzheng's inquiry, the little angel nodded happily.
"According to the results of the inspection and analysis, these slimes are very suitable for the owner's requirements, their skin is very suitable for replacing plastic film, not only that, but I also found that the liquid inside the body of these slimes also has high nutritional value and can be used as fertilizer."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng also immediately became interested. He really didn't expect to receive a surprise!
Of course, fertilizer is a good thing, no one will think that they grow too much food, and the fertilizer submitted by Nanali's mother can be explained by passing the assessment of the Alchemist Guild, but Nanali's mother is guilty of the biggest mistake of scientific researchers is that they don't care about the cost......... If the cost can't be reduced, then naturally there is nothing to say.
But slimes are different!
These monsters are easy to kill, and there are also quite a few of them, and even farming is easy to ......... Well, after learning about the role of slimes from Nimfu, Fang Zheng has decided to get a slime farm when he goes back.
But before he can do that, there is one more important thing he needs to do.
"I'll leave it to you, Miss Nanali."
What Fang Zheng needs to improve is Nanali's alchemist level, if he just gives the effects of these slimes to the Alchemist Guild, it is just a supply material, and these things can only be regarded as real alchemy products after being processed by alchemy.
Although Fang Zheng is also a little interested in alchemy, he and Nimfu don't know much about it, so they ......... it now I can only rely on Nanali.
